Like the thread says.... Just wanted to hear what all you romantics are going to be doing. Hoping to steal some ideas. For me as of now all I have planned is dinner at either Bouley, Megu or Nobu. Still havent found the gift (thinking of maybe a handbag). I would love to do something special but am running out of ideas. Its our third valentines day together and its quite hard to still find something super exciting to do for her. All inputs are appreciated

I had reservations at NoMi, a gift certificate to a day spa, and a naughty book. But she just broke up with me, so I get to keep the naughty book, spend no money on dinner, and try to figure out what to do with the spa gift certificate.

Send it to me, buddy! My gf and I will be in Chicago the weekend after Vday lol

I think this sounds like a great idea. I may steal it. My wife hasn't been skating in a long time and just mentioned it. I haven't been since about seventh grade, so she'll get a laugh out of watching me attempt to skate.

like birthdays, thanksgiving and other holidays, in my household valentines day is not celebrated on schedule - we will do something the following weekend. I was actually not supposed to be home for valentines day, but now I will be, just for the reasons listed above I don't want to go out that night.

I probably will. They offer some cool-sounding yoga classes too. I think there's a "To [ex-GF's name], with love" message on the GC, so I don't think another girl would approve

The spa should give you no hassle about getting a fresh gift certificate. I think this is the first time I've ever ordered flowers a good two weeks in advance. Pretty proud of myself. I'll be cooking for her at home -- just not into the whole cliche VDay restaurant thing surrounded by young couples making schmoopy-faces at each other. That weekend, I'm taking her to see Macbeth with Patrick Stewart, so we can better appreciate the kinds of bold initiatives committed couples can take on as a team!
